BDS and Anti-Israel Hysteria in Canadian Universities

Hat tip Vlad Tepes


If you thought the lunacy over Israel was only in US universities, think again. Courtesy of Vlad Tepes, here is Michael Coren on Sun News examining the anti-Semitism on Canadian campuses. In addition to his own observations, Coren interviews a Jewish student from Ryerson University.

Coren hits the nail on the head. While criticism of Israel is not always anti-Semitic, the absurd fixation on the Middle East's only democracy, which happens to be a Jewish state, while ignoring the grotesque violations of human rights, religious persecution, and  daily slaughter that goes on among Israel's neighbors-as well as from one corner of the Islamic world to the other- can only be described as total hypocrisy. And that is where the anti-Semitism comes in.

The Palestinians and their allies in the Arab and Muslim word along with left-wing academia have successfully turned the Israel-Palestinian conflict into the number one hot button issue on college campuses throughout North America and Europe-at the expense of education and peace on campus. At what point do American and Canadian students tell these yahoos to take their Jew hatred back where they came from?
